Our main speaker was Dr. Bill Barclay. Dr. Barclay spent 22 years
working in the financial services industry and was a vice president of
both the Chicago Stock Exchange and the Chicago Board of Trade. He has
also been a long-time fighter for peace and justice. His writings have
appeared in many publications, and he has made many media appearances,
including on *Fox News* (see Bill Barclay video).

In addition to Dr. Barclay, a panel of local residents described how they have been affected by the economic crises.

We also had a lively question and comment session.

DuPage Peace Through Justice
Coalition

A Citizens' Group based in DuPage County in the Western Suburbs of Chicago,
Illinois

The purpose of the DuPage Peace Through Justice Coalition is multifaceted: to
promote nonviolent solutions to terrorism, to call on members of Congress to
protect civil liberties, and to provide a public forum to present alternatives
to war and education on cross cultural issues. The Coalition is made up of
people from diverse ethnic, racial, religious and cultural backgrounds united in
their belief that war is not the answer to terrorism. For more information about
the past or planned activities of the Coalition, please contact the DPTJC
coordinating committee at:

announcements related to peace and justice issues and events, see DPTJC mail
